On Monday, May 30, Cazenovia observed Memorial Day with a parade, led by the American Legion Post 88 Color Guard, and a program at Memorial (Cannon) Park. Following the parade, Post 88 held a lunch at the Cazenovia Fire Department for all who marched. Later that afternoon, Post 88 held a memorial service at its Garden of Honor in front of the Post 88 Home to honor veterans buried in any of the community’s cemeteries. Throughout the weekend, Post 88 handed out red poppies to honor the men and women who have lost their lives protecting the United States.

CPF announces National Trails Day event Gorge Trail Gateway is ‘Signature Project’ By Kate Hill Staff Writer Each year, on the first Saturday in June, Cazenovia Preservation Foundation (CPF) celebrates National Trails Day. This spring, CPF is inviting community members to help celebrate with a visit to the Gorge Trail Gateway, 131 Albany St., CPF’s “Signature Project” site, on June 4 from 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. CPF is a private, non-profit organization that works to protect the historical, agricultural, and natural resources in and around Cazenovia for the benefit of the community and the enjoyment of future generations. The organization currently holds 2,700 acres in conservation easements and owns

430 acres of protected open space and habitat. CPF’s Gorge Trail follows the former bed of the Cazenovia and Canastota Railroad. The improved section of the trail parallels Chittenango Creek for two-plus miles from Clark Street north to Bingley Road. The trail is a section of the North Country National Scenic Trail, a 4,800mile trail that stretches across eight states, from North Dakota to Vermont, making it the longest in the National Trails System. In addition to parking areas off Clark Street and Bingley Road, the Gorge Trail can be accessed from the Buyea’s True Value parking lot on Route 20 or on foot from Williams Street. CPF’s Signature Project is aimed at reconfiguring the pedestrian/bike access at the Buyea’s parking lot entrance to the Gorge Trail. “The Signature Project was conceived as a way to directly benefit our community,” said Signature Project Committee

Because the Buyea’s Trailhead is near the center of town, we also expect CPF
